    First – your (first) character:

    Emory, Princess of Faran

    I did take some liberties with her other accouterments – I had wanted to do a more active pose, but that rapidly proved beyond my cogitative abilities (and I didn’t know what other royal / religious symbols existed in your setting – I guessed such things figured prominently since you have a cult as part of the opposition).

    But I did remember to give her a crown! If a rather modest one.

    The dress isn’t perfectly executed. It’s based on the ancient Greek peplos. I must say though, from my research it honestly sounds like the ancient Greeks were astoundingly lazy when it came to clothes design. I mean, it’s literally just, “Look, I wove this great big rectangle of wool, I bet we could wear it. How? Uh… just wrap it around and tie it off. Yeah, that looks like it’ll stick. Sewing? GET OUT.”
